Grinah Stones Friday 30th June 2006

A walk in one of my favourite areas, Bleaklow, to celebrate my birthday. Access to the start of the walk by car is restricted at weekends so the route was planned to take advantage of the fact it was a Friday. Walking on this side of Bleaklow is relatively easy because the peat bogs aren't as extensive as they are on other parts of the moor and the restricted access can also make it very quiet, today we only saw one other person. The high cloud and breeze made for ideal walking conditions although the distant views of Derwent Edge, Howden Edge and Kinder Scout were very hazy.
